Just thought I would drop in quickly and announce that my love affair with chocolate will soon be rekindled...I am in the process of weaning Sarah. The only thing is...she doesn't love formula so much. It's like I am trying to feed her poison! Any suggestions appreciated...

I am planning on doing a proper post soon...and I am still planning on privatizing my blog. Thanks for the emails, I need to get my list together when a have a free minute (ha!) and do it.

I just realized I have been MIA for awhile... I am in Michigan staying with the Smiths, who have so graciously entertained me since Thursday. It has been a fantastic trip and I can't wait to share pictures. But for now, let me share this utterly humiliating story...So, I was at Wal Mart on Wednesday, stocking up on 'travel sized' toiletries for this trip, and it was of course SO crowded, as WM always is. There were a few shopping carts full of products to be stocked on the shelves that were hanging out in the aisles, so everyone was trying to maneuver their way around them. I got my travel items and then had to back out of the aisle since there were people and carts blocking my path, and as I was backing out I noticed that there were people behind me as well, waiting for me to move so they could go through. So I continued to back up, trying to squish myself out of the way so that the other people could go up the aisle, when I bumped my backside into yet another cart full of re-stock products (women's hair dye). Well, I bumped that cart right into the emergency exit. Yeah, you would have thought it was WWII the way the sirens were going off. It was enough to damage the eardrums of everyone in the place for life. The most horrific part of it all was that I was stuck there...I couldn't sneak off and pretend that it wasn't me who set off the alarm, because of all the people and carts surrounding me. I was hoping someone would reassure me that it wasn't my fault, but I could see that pretty much everyone was judging and hating me for the sirens wailing around them.Just another lovely shopping experience at WalMart. Yikes.
